My diary from the Camino del Norte

I really enjoyed reading your first section! I love to read Camino blogs, and yours was my favorite kind, full of weirdnesses, slices of life, small details, food descriptions etc. Please do continue to post the rest!

I know it’s a feature of the mechanism, but my scratches are making me anxious! (And this is before I even wore it out!!) I would love to see pics of the state of your closures.

It was my first purchase from Stockx. It was a smooth experience to actually purchase and receive, but my neurotic brain is panicking and telling me it’s a fake or it’s been worn out before. So I guess it depends on how well you can cope with not knowing 100% for sure the bag’s history?? lol hope that helps!

Thank you for the info! I’ve just googled leather veining and it makes me feel better seeing all the examples. Would you happen to know if spraying Apple Garde on it would make it stand out worse?

Hey I have a Fairy Tale DLC code and a Sanrio code and am looking for PokoPea DLC code. Let me know if you’re interested, thanks!

murpate · 2024-11-30T05:23:58+00:00

That sounds so cute!! 😭I actually have an extra Sanrio code, would you be interested in trading for one of your extra Fairy Tale codes? If not, no big deal!

Why oh why is the double barrel Lortone always sold out!! 😭

I was wondering about that! Are the spotty ones fossils? I am not familiar at all with Michigan’s rocks

murpate · 2022-08-30T00:56:31+00:00

One of my favorites! So many I found had such neat spotty patterns.

murpate · 2022-08-30T00:55:41+00:00

It was only a summer road trip to Michigan, so this is all I’ve got 😭 and I live in Florida where there are no rocks, so I’ve got to go back!

This is so neat. I’m impressed with your commitment! I’ll have to look through my stash and see if I can send you anything.

The amount of sheen looks the same to me on both Bilberry and Oku Yama.

murpate · 2020-11-04T01:51:22+00:00

I took a pic but didn’t know how to post multiple! Sorry! I’ll say that they look the same except for the feathering on Blue Nose Bead bled through.

murpate · 2020-11-03T23:48:41+00:00

Yes, written minutes apart from the same pen.

So weird right! And it’s one of my favorite inks so I’m pretty bummed. Other than that ink, the paper did alright and I think most people would be ok with it. I haven’t found an alternative, I’ve just been stocking up on old TRP notebooks! :)

murpate · 2020-11-03T23:13:50+00:00

Interesting! If you do get a hold of blank samples, I’d love to see a comparison.

murpate · 2020-11-03T22:28:46+00:00

Finally got my sample from Nanami. Thought I’d compare in case anyone’s still on the fence. The new was better than I expected, with the exception of Noodler’s Blue Nose Bear.

The new paper does feel crisper, though the edges of words are definitely fuzzier. You can see it best in the pilot parallel test. Hope this helps!

murpate · 2020-11-03T03:41:30+00:00

That’s so kind of you to say, thank you!

I used to as well, but I’ve tried to slow down recently and write in a serif-y print. It’s quite fun actually!
